This limited edition version of the Speed MP features a sleek black cosmetic
Introducing the Speed MP Legend! Featuring the same specs and playability as the standard Speed MP 2024, this racquet sports a sleek black cosmetic. On the court, this stick not only feels rock-solid on groundies and volleys, but it also rewards full cuts with enough power to close out points. For 2024, in addition to a slightly more flexible and arm-friendly stiffness rating, Head adds Auxetic 2 to the layup, a uniquely flexible material in the yoke and handle to optimize the feel and response. The Speed MP also benefits from Graphene 360+ (labeled Graphene Inside), which strengthens the frame in key locations to provide a more powerful and stable hitting experience. Ultimately, the Speed MP Legend is a great option for intermediate and advanced players who want controllable power and great feel. The limited edition cosmetic is a nice bonus.

Customer Reviews
Head Speed MP LegendThis is a great racquet. I have played with Head Speed racquets for about 15 years and I’ve always been pleased with their performance. This is another great step forward in that generational line. It is well balanced, easy to maneuver, offers great control on groundstrokes and overheads, and on top of all that, it’s an amazing looking racquet. The sleek black finish combined with black strings, makes it one of the best looking racquets on the court.
Sinner's choiceI've been using an RF97 for 4 years and I felt the difference. The head size 100 is very forgiving, the weight and balance are perfect. The only thing I didn't like is that the paint goes away so easy. Overall is an amazing racquet
Great racquetI purchased this racquet based on my satisfaction with my previous Head Speed Pro 2022 and the posted reviews and I'm very happy with it.
Head Speed MP LegendI have been playing with Head Speed racquets for years, but was particularly attracted to the Legend because it is so great looking. It plays as beautifully as it looks. Solid ground strokes, easy topspin, and good control. I liked it so much I bought a second one for a back up.
Head Speed MP Legend - UnbelievableI never played with a Head racquet in my 40 years of tennis but decided to give this one a try alongside the Legend Pro. Despite the racquets being from the same line, they played and felt so different and ultimately I found the MP suited me more giving me a little more power but with the phenomenal control and feel. I now know why the Speed MP is such a popular racquet.....
Amazing racquetJust an amazing tennis racquet! Solid players racquet. Baseline hitting is awesome, serves awesome and very arm friendly. I’ve played every racquet out there and finally found the tennis racquet I like. My recommendation DEMO IT and you’ll see what I’m talking about. I own the 2022 and the new 2024, both are good racquets but the ‘24 is just more plush. And I like the fact you don’t have to worry about over hitting the ball. Solid frame. Strung ALU Power 17 ice blue. 50 pounds

Replaced my MP Radical with the MP SpeedI have played with a Radical for five years, but time came to decide to upgrade it or switch to another frame. I play tested the Speed, Boom and Radical and out of these racquets the Speed provided great stability and gave me more power than the Radical. You can let this frame do the work for you as it will easily produce power. Word of warning though, if you muscle the ball and skim on your technique your shots will sail long. As for the Legend vs the standard model. I own both and unfortunately the white paint on the standard has been stained by sunscreen. So when I bought my second stick, I went with the all black legend. For reference I string with multifilament at 50 pounds.
